Open floor plans are evil for developers. Whoever started that trend needs to be strung up by their nose hair. There is no better way to ensure no work gets done than putting 10 people in an environment that every two person conversation interrupts (and I believe that "15 minutes to get back into the zone" is a bunch of crap).
- dan_manges 15y agoWe have a dev team of 12 working with an open floor plan, pair programming. We get a lot done. There is no single right way to operate.
- rhizome 15y ago"We get a lot done," is pretty meaningless without context. Do you know that the dev team likes it that way?
- dan_manges 15y agoYes, everybody prefers it to working in isolation
- rhizome 15y ago"Isolation" would seem to be a harsh alternative choice.
